BACKGROUND:Ultrasound guidance is commonly used for accessing difficult peripheral veins.For successful access,a tourniquet is required for venodilation.Tourniquets decrease the compressibility and increase the diamet...
Background:Construction of a central shunt by connection of hypoplastic true pulmonary arteries to the ascending aorta(AO)can be performed as a first step in staged repair of pulmonary atresiawith ventricular septal d...
This paper represents a detailed and systematic review of one of the most ongoing applications of computational fluid dynamics(CFD)in biomedical applications.Beyond its various engineering applications,CFD has started...
In this paper,we consider a one-dimensional model of blood flow along the compliant arteries.With the help of the invariant function,we construct and classify the optimal system of subalgebras.Next,we reduced the give...
